Mechanism of chemical aspect in ferromagnetic flow of second grade liquid

Abstract

Here we consider the analysis of ferromagnetic flow of second grade liquid over a stretched surface. Characteristics of heat and mass transfer are investigated through thermal radiation, chemical reaction and viscous dissipation. Similarity transformation approach is utilized in order to transform the governing expressions into set of coupled nonlinear ordinary differential equations (ODEs). Resulting problems are numerically solved using built-in-shooting technique. Outcome of various parameters like Prandtl number (Pr), ferromagnetic interaction (β), Eckert number (Ec), Schmidt number (Sc), Curie temperature (ε), chemical reaction (γ), material variable (β1) and thermal radiation (R) on the momentum, thermal and concentration fields is investigated. The present solutions are compared with the previous published works in a limiting case which shows the validation of present methodology of solution computations. Numerical computations for skin friction, Sherwood and Nusselt numbers are calculated through involvement of influential variables.
